I understand that empty feeling.
When I left the Army in 3/1971,I returned home to Brooklyn,NY and was getting back into the swing of things in my old stumping grounds (West Village) and one morning I awoke to my favorite radio station (WRVR) and heard Les Davis announce the tragic passing of Lee Morgan,on the East Side
of town.
